Update 4/29/2015: With your help we raised $1,159 for the Glinsk Hermitage! May the Lord bless your generosity!

We recently received disturbing news from the Glinsk Hermitage, a monastery located just miles from the Russian-Ukranian border. Though sometimes overshadowed by Optina, Glinsk boasts its own lineage of God-bearing elders and ascetics. In recent years, 16 of these have been officially glorified as saints. Forced to shut down twice by the Soviet regime, the Glinsk Hermitage reopened in 1994. Now, their existence is once again under threat. The brotherhood is suffering financial hardship because prolonged tensions between the two countries have led to a dearth of pilgrims and donations. More importantly, hardly any young men are joining the Hermitage as novices.

2) Any of the three books above, separately. 20% of each purchase will go to the brotherhood.

We will also accept donations through our Paypal account. Simply make a Paypal transfer to sales@holytrinitypublications.com and reference "Glinsk Hermitage Donation" in the notes or instructions field.
